About this property

Family-Friendly, Historic, Renovated Sister Bay Farmhouse with Crib + Toys

We believe a vacation rental is more than just a place to sleep—it is the setting for the moments you’ll carry with you long after you leave. Part of ANTHOLOGY STAYS, this renovated 1923 farmhouse honors the heritage of Door County vacationing by providing a space designed for connection. Whether you are prepping a meal around the reclaimed wood kitchen island or sharing stories in the living room, we provide the backdrop so you can focus on creating the stories you’ll recall for years to come.

Every detail is curated to help you slow down and lean into the beauty and history of the peninsula: getting lost in a puzzle on a rainy afternoon, challenging the kids to a board game, or cozying up in the window seat with a good book. From enjoying a home-cooked meal around the dinner table, to watching the sunset through the trees, this is your place to reconnect with the people who matter most and add a beautiful new chapter to your family’s history.

This was a very nice place. We had hoped to rent a place on the water, but got going too late - and then this house was available, and we were really happy with it! It was very peaceful and charming: warm, cozy, inviting, and comfortable. The house was very well set up for our dogs - and it really looked like a great place for families with kids: calm, private, not far from town, tons of toys and a swing set. You’ll enjoy it!

What a quaint and charming farmhouse! So beautifully decorated as well. We enjoyed our stay immensely. It was comfortable to relax in at all times of the day. We especially liked the swing bench on the porch every morning as we drank our coffee. It was also conveniently located to all the adorable little towns.
